I am trying to implement silent payments as a plugin

I will wait till bitcoin-core/secp256k1#1765 is merged

Taking #9900 as inspiration

Have you read my concerns about the serious shortcomings and tradeoffs of that implementation?
They need to be addressed.

Sorry but I do not want new plugins to be merged, unless they have shown to be extremely popular. Please distribute your plugin as an external plugin, and submit it to https://plugins.electrum.org

The reason is, we need to focus and prioritize our own code development. Support for external plugins has been added in order to reduce the workload on developers, so that they do not spend their time serving requests.
